Embark on an Exciting Chatham Challenge with RNLI’s Stormy Stan this Spring at The Historic Dockyard Chatham

STORMY STAN’S CHATHAM CHALLENGE

This spring The Historic Dockyard Chatham is hosting a brand-new event in conjunction with the 200th anniversary of the RNLI. Families are invited to join Stormy Stan and the Storm Force Crew from 29 March to 6 May 2024 for a fun-filled adventure that promises to test visitors’ puzzle solving skills.

The event follows the story of mischievous ‘Scatty the Seagull’ who was lured into a playful game of hide and seek by puffins ‘Petey’ and ‘Polly’, resulting in lifebuoys being scattered throughout the 80-acre site.

Children will be challenged to assist Stormy Stan and take on the role of a hero as they navigate through the Dockyard, overcoming obstacles, completing safety checks, and unraveling the twists and turns that await.

Alongside the trail, visitors will be able to meet Stormy Stan himself and pose for photos across Easter weekend and other selected dates (see website for details).
